People are in Star Rail, but all the people are NPCs?

As far as Aruan can remember, she only has one friend.

That is Lin Ze, the boy next door.

Her mother, a scientist, gave her the initial enlightenment, making her different from her peers.

She always felt that they were a little... clumsy.

Only Lin Ze made her care.

They were neighbors, and her mother said that when they were still babbling in their cradles and couldn't speak, the two of them often fell asleep hand in hand.

Aruan grew up in love and was able to detect subtle differences in love and different smells.

The smell on Aze's body was a bit like the smell his father had for his mother, but it was different.

It made Aruan feel interesting.

Aze would pull her out to play with those children she thought were clumsy.

Playing house was childish, and she didn't understand why they were so happy to do it.

But it was fun to play Aze's wife, because he would pretend to be an adult when he got home from work and say with a straight face,"Aruan, I'm back."

At that time, Aruan would add,"Thank you for your hard work, welcome home."

Bringing the food made of leaves to Aze and watching Aze pretend to eat, sometimes Aruan would think that Aze was cute even though he was clumsy.

They would walk hand in hand by the river, catch fish, and play in the water.

It was a very interesting time.

"Ruan, will you become a scientist like your aunt in the future?"

"Yes, because life is interesting."

"But isn’t the exploration very dangerous?"

"Well, it’s okay to have dangers. As long as you can discover something wonderful, any danger is worth it."

"Then I have to grow up well, develop some skills, and then protect A Ruan well."

As the sun sets, A Gan and A Ze smell a little different.

She likes this reassuring smell.

"Well, it's a deal, pinky promise"

"Pinky promise."

Little 807 hooked his fingers together, and the boy and girl made a pact.

When he was old enough to go to school, A'ruan's grades were always the best in the same grade, with full marks in every subject. The boy followed behind her and found a teacher to practice swordsmanship.

Unlike Aze, A'ruan's personality and hobbies were isolated by other children, but this was nothing for A'ruan, as there would be no problem with Aze around.

He would hold his hand and announce to everyone that he was his best friend.

While playing, A'ruan would play the piano for everyone.

After the performance, Aze clapped the loudest.

Benben is so cute. If Aze is around, I can also feel more at ease.

After only one year of school, Aruan is going to a faraway place with his parents.

They are going to conduct research on life sciences in deep space, starting from their hometown, a world blessed by [Abundance], and going to more worlds.

When I saw Aze again, they were already teenagers.

What is different from before is that Aze has a scar on his face and is on a life of protection. His hometown was invaded by the Antimatter Legion. Aze's parents died in the invasion, and only he survived.

He joined the resistance and was greeted by the gaze of the Amber King during the battle.

He led the people of his hometown to defeat the invasion of the Antimatter Legion.

"Long time no see, A-Ryu"

"Well, it's gone, Aze."

Under the plum tree, a black-haired girl in green clothes smiled at the boy.

Her bare hands plucked the strings of the Ruanqin, and the sound was distant and ethereal.

The smile that was not worldly made Aze smile as well, just like the boy who would pull her to play back then.

The smell hasn't changed, Aze. (ceff)

After the war, Aze devoted himself to rebuilding his hometown. Fortunately, the abundance blessed this place, and the construction speed was amazingly fast.

But Aruan found that the boy often felt sad under the moonlight.

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay, but everyone I used to know is gone."

"And I'm here." A Ruan held the boy's hand. Is this the right thing to do at this time?

A Ze forced a smile,"Yes, you're here too.""

"Aze, you said you would protect me"

"Yes, I will protect you. We agreed that even if you die, I will die before you."

They sat in the stone pavilion, and Ah Ruan put out the cakes she made herself.

"I made it myself, try it"

"Oh, good. Taste, very good."

"I like it. Ah Ze, why are you willing to protect me?"

Ah Ruan asked curiously.

"without……"The lie that was about to come out turned into the truth,"Because you are the most important person to me besides my parents."

Such truth made A Ruan narrow his eyes

"Aze, I really like your answer. I can give you a reward. What do you want?"

""Can you hug me?"

Ah Ruan was stunned for a moment, looking at Ah Ze's somewhat wooden eyes, her heart was in a knot for some reason. She didn't know why, and couldn't figure out this feeling. She did n't like it, she really didn't like it.

Her body moved first, hugging the boy who had experienced too much.

The boy's body trembled. In the war, he lost his parents who he could act like a spoiled child, his friends who he played with, and even his companions in the war.

The trembling soon turned into crying, but the crying soon disappeared.

"Are you crying?"

"Crying, no, no."Are you so stubborn that even truth serum doesn't work?

When they were eighteen, they held a coming-of-age ceremony.

A-Ruan also wanted to go out for an inspection with his parents, and this time, A-Ze also followed.

The boy studied life science with A-Ruan.

A-Ruan found that the stupid boy before made rapid progress, and even his parents were regretful that they should have discovered A-Ze's talent earlier.

They shouldn't have let him practice martial arts. (To read the violent novels, go to Fulu Novel Network!)

"Um, I like you, can you be my boyfriend?"

Ah Ruan was walking in the corridor of the spacecraft, and heard a woman's voice not far away.

She had no interest at first, until she heard Ah Ze's answer,"Well, I'm sorry, I don't have the idea of having a girlfriend yet."

The polite answer made Ah Ruan's mouth curl up unconsciously.

After the female researcher left disappointed, Ah Ruan came over,"Aze, I want to give you a reward"

"Reward? What reward? Did I do anything?"

"No, just to celebrate your academic breakthrough"

"Oh."

Aze, stupid!

My father said Aze has talent, but where is it? He is still so stupid.

He just doesn't make people hate him.

"The reward is gone"

"Huh? Why?"

"I won't tell you."

Give him a surprise on his birthday."[]

In order to prepare for Aze's birthday, Aruan specially reduced her research time and prepared special pastries.

On the birthday, many people on the research ship celebrated Aze's birthday and everyone played very late.

But what Aruan did not expect was that the boy confessed to her.

She didn't know how to answer. She didn't want to refuse, nor did she want to agree.

She didn't understand if it was because of the excessive secretion of dopamine and phenylethylamine in her brain.

Facing the boy who was looking at her, she finally chose to refuse.

Aze was not too sad. They were the same as always, just keeping a little distance.

This sense of distance was just right, not too far, not too close, but Aruan felt that this feeling was very uncomfortable.

The pastries sent to him didn't ask anything, and only answered that they tasted good.

But there was a feeling in my heart telling me that Aze still cared about the last answer.

Their research spacecraft landed on a planet, and the research work went smoothly.

Unfortunately, the antimatter army landed on this planet.

The spacecraft was dragged by the doomsday beast and could not leave the planet.

The whole spacecraft was a mess, and Aruan was also looking for the boy who promised to protect her.

""Aze, come back soon!"

A Ruan ran over to his father's shout.

When he caught up, he only saw Aze's back."Tell A Ruan that I won't come back!" He jumped down from the hatch of the spaceship, holding a sharp sword, and started fighting with the Doomsday Beast.

They fell from the sky and turned into an invisible shadow.

"Ah Ze!

Ah Ruan suddenly realized that she would never see the boy who said he would protect her again.

There are many fools, but people like Ah Ze will never be seen again.

The spaceship successfully escaped from the planet, but Ah Ruan lost an important person.

When sorting out the remains, she found a suicide note.

【Seeing you is like seeing you, A Ruan, by the time you see this suicide note, I should be dead】

【I have been writing this suicide note since I stepped on this spaceship. Compared with the vast universe, I am always unqualified, but as long as I can protect you, I am willing to pay any price.】

【Your pastries are delicious, but I always want to hear the truth, so I stuff weird things into them. Do you really think I don’t know?】

【Compared to you when you were a kid, you've become less cute. We used to play husband and wife when we were kids.】

【Haha, it must be stupid in your eyes, right? After all, you were always smart when you were a kid.】

【So smart that I need to make great efforts to catch up with you.】

【Sometimes I wonder, if we are together, will the child we give birth to be as smart as you or as stupid as me?】

【Oh, I think I'm thinking too much.】

【Now, A-Ruan feels too far away to me, so far away that I can only see your back from behind. No matter how hard I try, I can't catch up.】

【So, I have to work harder.】

【I feel very complicated when writing this suicide note. I want to be with you, forever, and protect you for the rest of my life. But I am afraid that I will be dead after you read it.】

【Did I die to protect you, Ruan? Did I protect you well?】

【If it really works, that would be great.】

【Ah Ruan, you have to live well when I'm not around.】

【By the way, think more, you are the best when you smile】

【Ah Ruan, I like you. If there is a chance, we will see each other in the next life.】

【Lin Ze]

The sadness could no longer be contained, it burst out in vain, tears wet the suicide note, and my throat seemed to be torn by fire

"Liar, you promised to protect me forever"
